The Seattle Mariners have taken some blows to their starting rotation, so they took a flyer on Chris Young who did not throw one inning in a big league game last season. Young has given up only four hits in two of his first three starts, and has been a welcomed addition to the starting rotation. The Yankees are off to a great start at 15-10, but concerns surround C.C. Sabathia who can no longer overpower hitters. Sabathia's fastball was once in the mid to upper 90s is consistently coming in at 89 now. The result is 6 HRs allowed already on the season. He has a 4.78 ERA on the season after finishing last year at 4.78 as well. He also allowed 28 HRs - the most in his storied career. He is now considerably over-valued, so take Seattle.
